Poetry
One told me something special
when my mother passed away
a story of truth and wisdom
revealed to me that day!
He stood beside her casket
with tears flowing down his face
as he told me this dear story
knowing mom's in a heavenly place.
He spoke of the casket
where my precious mother lay
He said there are two meanings
when that door is closed to stay.
He spoke of the casket door
closing on an unsaved soul
Oh how it was so final
sin would pay its hopeless toll!
He said when one is lost
and that casket door goes down,
It's done now, it's all over
satan's victory then abounds........
BUT, when that door is closing
on a child of the KING,
that casket becomes a Treasure Chest
Holding God's most precious Being.
This Treasure Chest will close
until Christ's wondrous return
the trumpet shall sound a mighty song
then God's promises will be learned!
He IS coming again dear friend
and the promise has been made,
The dead in Christ shall rise again
to a home with Him to stay.
Oh precious precious Treasure Chest
it holds one I so dearly loved,
But oh so little my love compares
To our Fathers Love above........
